Show Flue OistiugM. I In tho boiler works ofJ. Sloan & Co., opposite the City Meat Market, nre to be seen some castings from the foundry of Nathan Davis it Son, in this city, which speak excellently for the ability of the establishment to turn out articles of superior workmanship. work-manship. The castings form a set o " boiler plate rollers, and arc the : largest between Omaha and San Francisco. Thoy weigh 2,900 lbs., and are six feet lonsr. The two bot tom rollers are six inches in diameter, diame-ter, and the top roller seven inches, with six inch bearings on each end. They can roll up to a ouc and three-quarter three-quarter inch sheet, six feet wide, and any length required, down to a seven inch circle; as well as any kind of tiro iron. Competent practical workmen work-men pronounce these rollers equal to anything of the kind made in any part of the United States, and they were furnished at as low a price as they could be laid down here at, no matter where procured in the east. Centlemcn requiring eastings should not forget that Salt Lake has such an establishment as that of Davis & Son, and send off east or west for castings that can be as cheaply nnd well made here as anywhere in the country. Sloan & Co. justly feel highly. satisfied with their rollers. |
